Current Industry Mobile Payment Initiatives
18
� Focused on retail POS and mainstream banked consumer
� NFC Wallets – Google and Isis � Closed loop retail POS mobile apps
� Starbucks � PayPal – Home Depot, other retailers
� Apple Passbook app stores loyalty cards � Mobile payment acceptance apps with plug-in
card reader (e.g. Square, Intuit) � Assume merchant has a bank account
� How can they support needs of the underserved?
Mobile Regulatory Landscape
19
� Most non-banks rely on traditional funding sources: credit, debit, prepaid, ACH
� Underlying payment methods used to fund mobile wallet covered by existing regulations and rules � Pay now (debit) - Electronic Funds Act (EFTA) and Reg E � Pay later (credit) - Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and Reg Z � Pay in advance (prepaid)
§ Gift cards - Federal Credit CARD Act, limits on fees and expiration date, State laws
§ General Purpose Reloadable (GPR) - EFTA and Reg E protections
• CFPB can regulate non-bank providers of consumer financial services
Mobile Regulatory Landscape
20
• Data privacy coverage for mobile payments is unclear • Current mobile carrier policies are not standard;
inconsistent on opt-in vs. opt-out requirements • Gramm Leach Bliley privacy rule
• FIs must protect and disclose use of sensitive non-public customer information (FTC, Fed Reg P)
• Customer must opt-in to share PII with 3rd party
• Prepaid access providers (stored value) and Money Transmitters are money service businesses (MSB), subject to BSA/AML compliance
• Money transmitters also subject to state licensing for activities
Status of Mobile Payments Regulation
21
• Federal Reserve and Mobile Payments Industry Workgroup met with bank regulators, FTC, and FCC in April to discuss regulatory clarity
• Primary concerns – consumer protection, privacy and data security
• Consumer ‘awareness before engagement’ • Important for non-banks and new companies offering
mobile services to understand how to protect consumers, but for now banks still liable
• General consensus – still too early in mobile payments evolution to regulate
• Focus on education and communication between industry and agencies
• Industry stakeholders want to be involved, in the loop, when need for mobile regulation arises
Conclusions
22
� Service providers must educate underbanked consumers to build trust and make them more comfortable with mobile financial services
� Mobile payment services must show value proposition and incentive to change behaviors
� Financial service providers should find ways to leverage prepaid and other payment options to develop mobile products that meet the needs of the underserved.
� Partnering and packaging services may provide revenue opportunities and engage a new market segment with potential for longer-term financial inclusion.
